I’m not a fan of brinksmanship, so I really don’t like the
fact that pols on both sides of the aisle seem to find the edge so tantalizing.
They know and you know and I know that they all assume they will make a deal at
the last possible moment to avert fiscal disaster.
I would be much more confident about all this if I felt
their self-confidence was well placed. In order to believe they WILL pull back
from the precipice, one must believe that CAN pull back, which is to say that they
are collectively competent to do so.
I wish I could believe.
I am sore afraid.
